Abu Sayyaf safe house was an Islamic school
AUTHORITIES arrested Friday a suspected member of the Abu Sayyaf gang in a raid in a Muslim school in Quezon City suspected of harboring terrorists, GMA Network radio and television reported. The report said Superintendent Roger Damaso of the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) identified a certain Fatima Santos as having been arrested during the raid and who was now in their custody for questioning, the report said. Santos' name was in a separate warrant, which police secured from the court to look for six people who were allegedly hiding in the school, the report added. Several tapes containing videos of jihad training, "the September 11 aftermath and other video footage concerning terrorism" were also seized when combined elements of the Philippine National Police (PNP) and the Intelligence Service of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (ISAFP) swooped down on the school along Ermin Garcia Street in the area of Cubao, the report said.
